q21 tek 2- freezing question

[hexan]

evening nexians.

Ok, swim just did a 150g extrac.

The first pull looks good and cloudy. Much more so than my maiden effort.

Its been in the freezer a few hrs and i can see formations on the base of the pyrex.

however, when I gently rock the pyrex i am seeing what looks like cloudy milky skin inside the naphtha !

Have you seen this? I didnt get anything like this last time.

Just wondering if I have plant contaminants in the naphtha.

Or is it simply solid bodies coalescing in the naphtha?

Im praying this is simply a sign of an excellent first pull : )

I'll never sleep tonight for excitement.

My last tek 2 was poor, I have tweaked my process a lot this time.

Fingers crossed, I would be happy with 1% yield.

The cloudy milky stuff is a good sign. Its the dmt looking for somewhere to crystallize.

I should add the more concentrated the dmt is in the naphtha the cloudier it gets IME.

cool. the naphtha was cloudy as I poured it in but after 2 hrs in cold its so strange to see the way the particles pull together in milky clouds.

Gently rocking the pyrex makes them move hypnotically, a beautiful thermodynamic dance.

Im gonna have another peak ; )
